weird oil like glaze on windscreen

I’ve noticed this on my windscreen after I use the washers, is it something in the screen wash or maybe some cleaning product on the screen itself!?

What are you using for windshield (windscreen) washer fluid?

When was young working at a gas station they had the similar design washer fluid bottles right next to the similar designed brake fluid bottles.
That mistake still haunts me.

The 1 and 2 series are notorious for issues around washer concentrate, specifically mixing BMW and non-BMW fluids. So I would suggest you flush out whatever is there and then continue using the BMW stuff consistently.
